When I started combining a Ph.D. with my job at the University College Ghent, Yves suggested me to read Getting things done by David Allen. Shortly after, he was so generous to give a GTD-course at our college. Other suggestions by Yves were The 7 habits of highly effective people (Stephen Covey) and the 4-hour work week (Timothy Ferriss). Recently, he advised me to read Weinberg on Writing (Gerald Weinberg) in the middle of a writer’s block.
What honours him the most is the fact he just offered these suggestions after reading one of my blogposts or tweets. That’s why he truly deserves the title of Book Doctor
